ABSTRACT:
A window (1) comprising a window pane (3) is provided with a visual display panel (5) laminated to the window (1). The visual display panel (5) comprises a cholesteric liquid crystal medium (15) sandwiched between inner and outer substrates (11,12) which are patterned with row and column electrodes (18,19) for defining individual pixels (8) which are individually addressable for displaying information on the panel (5). Inner and outer protective panels (9,10) sandwich the inner and outer substrates (11,12) and the liquid crystal medium (15) therebetween. An ultraviolet film filter (16) is located between the outer protective panel (10) and the outer substrate (11). The outer panel (10) is bonded to the window pane (3). The protective panels (9,10), the substrates (11,12) and the film filter (16) are all of transparent material. The pixels (8) are operable in a light transmitting state when powered up, and in a light scattering state when powered down. Letters and numerals to display the information are formed by operating appropriate selected ones of the pixels (8) in the light scattering state. The remaining pixels (8) which form the background of the visual display panel (5) are operated in the light transmitting state. Accordingly, the panel facilitates the display of information on a shop window with minimum impairment to viewing of goods and other items in the shop window behind the panel (5) by the viewing public.
